He was at it again in December as he scored his first goal in the Bafana Bafana colours; “It was one of the proud moments in my career scoring my first goal in first start for my country."

"People always told me that I have the potential to go and ply my trade in Europe but I need to believe that first and work hard at Club level. I am excited to be part of this group of players and we want to give it all to win the tournament."

“I am hoping to do well during the tournament. We need to work as a team and push ourselves as a unit & as individuals. There will to do well is visible in this team and we are all committed to go a full distance,” added Majoro.
